That was always a bullshit claim, no?
Since group chats were never claimed to be e2ee.
Why do they have to remove it? Why not simply lie about it?
remnants of decency?

Nostr now 👏👏👏
What if the whole “intent” behind this whole thing is to drive people away from using telegram, and trusting it as a platform?
Undermine public trust…
What if they can’t read messages on there.
So they undermine people trust in it, driving them towards platforms they can monitor…
That’s just a conspiracy theory tho… however if you think about it, doesn’t it make sense?

Some other social network that shall be nameless (let’s call it network x) is reporting this sentence has simply moved to a more relevant place.

I have a growing list of concerns with Telegram, but let's strive to be fair & balanced in our reporting. In the main, this change looks to be part of a broader reorganization of the FAQ to incorporate more EU-specific citations. As others have pointed out, the phrase in question is still present; it's just been moved to a different heading.

Yea but they often declined government requests. Seems like now they will bend over backwards for them.
Having a known CEO is an easy point of failure. No one wants to go to jail. Satoshi did it the right way 🙏

Good pickup did not see that thanks
Good pickup. I did not see that, thanks
Sure, he bought himself his freedom again.
It will probably go away quietly now.
Good time to push full decentralized solution with protected people ids ?
🎯💯
Exactly.
That's messed up. But its not like I ever trusted telegram anyway
It is a system of consent. People have to hand it over.
Sempre avisei que Telegrama é SCAM.
Não entendo tanta gente naquela porcaria.

Got to love companies that create a monopoly for their service and then update their terms of service that would keep most of their users away from their product. How is this legal or moral?
Censorship resistance is hard

They've banned themselves from half the planet. At this point I'm sure they do care a bit about being banned.
kinda ironic basically just conceding that they don't make any effort to protect the privacy of group chats tho, it's gonna impact their userbase... probably more people leave without that guarantee, i'm sure maybe 5-10% of telegram users care about this... one of my friends already moved to Session a few months back because the red flags were piling up on telegram
Concerning, But I never used it anyway

Trusting Telegram is like trusting a cop.
This was clearly a blackmail scheme, and a ritual on Durov's part.
signal is the best everyday simple messaging app.

yep true
For the FBI/MI5/CIA agents monitoring this telegram channel, i declare that i have no idea how i got here. Probably through forced invite. I do not condone with or encourage of any illegal activities carried out within this channel. Illegal activities are frowned upon and are not endorsed by anyone in this channel.
Coincidência? Acho que não....
What a joke
Meant to attach this.

Ya estoy en
@0xchat y me parece genial
Acredito que o Telegram esteja com os dias contados para os brasileiros que buscam privacidade.
A gente está assistindo a ofensiva dos estados contra a privacidade dos seus respectivos cidadãos. Brasil não vai ser uma exceção.
